Axed Geordie Shore star Vicky Pattison has been charged over a nightclub fracas which left an 18-year-old student with a facial injury millimetres from her eye.

The brunette, who was suspended from the MTV reality show after her arrest in July, will appear before magistrates next month.

It is claimed she was involved in a brawl in a bar in Newcastle city centre which left student and model Hannah Kelso needing stitches to her face.
